Never understood why "The Shetlands" is considered so wrong. Yeah, it's a little clumsy, but as a contraction of "The Shetland Islands", it's fine, no? (ducks for cover)

Been pleasantly surprised by Mr Pop's Radio 6 "Iggy Confidential" these last few evenings. Was sceptical at first, but he plays a good variety of decent music. Hearing lots I'd not normally encounter. Worth a listen: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03yblbx/episodes/player

Looks good. I had a notion to put something like this in a while back, but opted for the plug-in style instead, purely because I wasn't certain what was going to need moving. I think these are a seriously good option though. Getting a couple of wifi zones across the house makes a big odds.

He knows fine well. The guy is a partisan hack. https://www.tedcruzforhumanpresident.com/

Haven't heard anything back, I'm afraid, other than things are happening over on Chess.com as EvilInky says.

Queen's Gambit is great. I really enjoyed it. I don't imagine the chess club is actively meeting given the circumstances, but perhaps they're holding something online? I've asked someone and will post back if I hear.

I disagree. This way is more democratic. You don't have to pay unless you do consider it good value.

It'll be to the main admin email address. Not something I have access too. Anyway, I'll give it a shot and swap the email address over. I know we've had a few problems recently with getting emails to and fro, so maybe this is the problem. I'll swap your email address over.

Haven't seen anything, I'm afraid. Who have you contacted? It might be that the emails are going into your spam folder. Did you check there? I can try to swap the email address over for you if you like.

That's the thing... all the lines are owned by BT already, and they're basically going to win whichever way. But at least this way they're charging me a fraction of the price. Obnoxious sods so they are.

BT are ridiculously expensive. I've just switched away from them this very evening. They want £79 a month for my current usage. I think not. Especially where their hardware is dodgy, has been reported as such and they've never replaced it. I've requested - and received - compensation for service outages from them twice in the last couple of years. Plusnet do a much better value package at around £30 a month, including all the same features (unlimited broadband, caller id, etc) but also including all calls, any time. Time will tell whether the service is any better, but it can't be much wor

Good stuff. Booked my tickets!

^ That is good. Spot on, and poetically written.

I've just tested the password change system, found here: http://www.shetlink.com/forum/profile.php?mode=sendpassword and it's working fine, so please give this a go. If you don't receive the email, please check your spam folder to see if the email has gone there. If you're still having trouble, please PM me and I'll try to help.
